Advanced Placement (AP)

frutty [35]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  • Land development creates impervious surfaces through construction of roads, parking lots, and other structures. Impervious surfaces:
  • Contribute to nonpoint source water pollution by limiting the capacity of soils to filter runoff.
  • Affect peak flow and water volume, which heighten erosion potential and affect habitat and water quality.
  • Increase storm water runoff, which can deliver more pollutants to water bodies that residents may rely on for drinking and recreation.1 Storm runoff from urban and suburban areas contains dirt, oils from road surfaces, nutrients from fertilizers, and various toxic compounds.
  • Affect ground water aquifer recharge.

Identity one key similarity and one key difference between societies that developed in central and South America to those that d
stich3 [128]
One key similarity would be that they all started off as colonial powers ruled by larger power in Europe. Most of these nations gained independence through revolution as well, while a smaller amount gained it by the European state giving the colony independence (canada, Jamaica), Cuba was also technically both (revolution against spanish to be ruled by America, given Independence by America). A big difference is that most of North america was ruled by the British and the French, while South and Central America were settled predominantly by the Spanish and Portuguese. This resulted in huge differences in culture, including language (English/french vs Spanish/Portuguese) and religion (Protestantism vs Catholicism).

Compare and contrast what impact does genetics have on happiness?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer with Explanation:

<em>Genetics' influence on the happiness</em> of a person has long been studied. Some people say that the genes of a person affects the person's mood. For example, "5-HTTLPR" is a gene that is regarded to be connected to depression. This is why it is called<u> "the depression gene."</u> It is also associated with sleep disorders like "insomnia." When someone has trouble sleeping, it disrupts his way of life thereby affecting his happiness.

On the contrary, the genes exhibit themselves according to external environments. This is also one reason why a person's happiness may also be determined by his<em> success in life, material possession, relationships with people and so on.</em> So, a person's situation in life partly influences his happiness.

kvv77 [185]

The statement candidates will be fixed up and trained for the election, as racing horses will be fixed up and trained best explains the reason for this analogy.

Option- C.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The "horse-race" or "gambling framework" story is a popular electoral coverage. "From decades of research we know that media aim to watch elections through competitive lens," Lawrence said.

"Campaigns are portrayed in many respects, including sports events, with an emphasis on who wins, who loses, who's up and who's down, whether we go forward or back in the elections." In addition to political bias, reporters across different media outlets promote biasing views by distilling in simple texts complex campaigns and issues.
